How much does the Mazak NEXUS 6800-II cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Yamazaki Mazak. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Mazak NEXUS 6800-II appears here as a 50-taper vertical machining center with listed travels of 1,524 × 762 × 660 mm (60.0 × 30.0 × 26.0 in). It is not in Mazak's current lineup and may be an older model. The figures are listed values, so confirm each of them against the documentation of the machine you are looking at.
The listed table measures 1,800 x 760 mm (70.9 x 29.9 in) and takes a workpiece of up to 3,000 kg (6,614 lb), on a fixed-column layout. The spindle is CAT 50 at 10,000 RPM. Power is listed as 22 kW (30 hp) at 25% ED and 15 kW (20 hp) continuous, and torque as 350 Nm (258 ft-lb) at 25% ED. Long roughing passes should therefore be planned around the continuous figure, with the 25% ED ratings kept for short, heavy cuts.
The magazine holds 30 tools as standard, with 60 and 120 tools listed as options. A tool can be up to 150 mm (5.9 in) in diameter, 400 mm (15.7 in) long and 25 kg (55 lb). Rapid traverse is 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) on all three axes and the listed machine weight is 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), a figure to pass to whoever plans the floor and the rigging. The listing is not consistent about the control, so establish which one a given machine carries before planning programming and training.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed travels of 1,524 × 762 × 660 mm (60.0 × 30.0 × 26.0 in) over a 1,800 x 760 mm (70.9 x 29.9 in) table
- CAT 50 spindle listed at 10,000 RPM with 350 Nm (258 ft-lb) at 25% ED
- Listed workpiece weight of 3,000 kg (6,614 lb)
- 30-tool magazine as standard with 60 and 120 tools listed as options; tools up to 400 mm (15.7 in) long and 25 kg (55 lb)
Limitations
- Not in Mazak's current lineup, and every figure is a listed value to confirm on the machine
- Continuous spindle power is 15 kW (20 hp); the 22 kW (30 hp) and 350 Nm (258 ft-lb) figures are 25% ED ratings
- Z travel of 660 mm (26.0 in) is short against 1,524 mm (60.0 in) of X, so tall fixtures and long tools compete for clearance
- Maximum tool diameter is listed at 150 mm (5.9 in), which limits large face mills and boring heads
